Gnoggin, hosted by its creator Lockstin, is a show delving into the mysteries of Pokemon! (and other games sometimes too). Explaining everything there is to explain! Why is each Pokemon given the type it has? What are their origins? What is the lore of the Pokemon world and the design inspirations? And what does it all have to do with alchemy? Let's Go find out!

To be fair Deoxys is an alien from space so the could be fairly common out there in space
Bryce Flanner true
Isn’t it a mutated space virus, also? The existence of a virus implies that there’s something out there that it infects. Something that’s either gone unseen until now, or else Deoxys originally evolved as a virus that infects Cleffa, Clefairy, and Clefable.
From my experience playing Pokemon Duel in 2017, Deoxys is definitely a form of cancer.
The Holy Grail yes they do. By definition viruses reproduce by infecting living cells(or other viruses in some very unique cases) and multiplying inside of them
nec minute its a starter on another planet
Celebi is unique. They are all the same celebi, just from different points in time.
Celebi is basically the Doctor of the Pokemon world.
But if you look at the Celebi in PMD, it's a Shiny Celebi. While it is implied to be unique in that universe, too, you can actually find a regular Celebi to add to your team that isn't Shiny. Meaning that even in the PMD Universe where for the most part each individual Legendary Pokémon is unique and powerful in some way, there must still be others out there we don't see.
there is at least 2, it isn't shinylocked in the VC release of crystal
Well Celebi travels through 1 single timeline, a multiverse would be a mutiple timelines so each timeline would have it's own Celebi. So actually no, there is most likely many.
Shiny celebi is celebi after they committed their first murder
"despite never recognizing ash"
Boy. Nobody recognizes ash
Not even himself
Except for Giratina
Yeah,why *_IS_* Giratina the only one that _instantly_ recognises him?
Distortion world yadda yadda
Super Sonic Duo
Because the 10th - 12th movies are a trilogy
The giratina in the 11th movie is the same one as from the one in the 12th
Doesnt explain why palkia or dialga dont reconize him though
*Someone Catches Articuno*
People: “OH NO WE ARE GONNA DIE!”
Me: “It’s a Ditto.”
Its a zoroark
@@talentlessasian330 maybe..
He didn't catch
Dittos need to mirror another Pokémon right
Its a zoroark that turned into a mew that turned into a ditto
“Why isn’t the world over?”
Because the world already turned to Ash, duh
BurntToast only ppl who seen the movie understand
Why couldn't my mom have named me Bob!?
Lol good one
That’s a such a bad pun... I love it
And now we leave him in the dust as we reboot the franchise.
Imma party for this victory Royale.
I like how many Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres just fly over the Kanto region in Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu/Eevee.
Was legit just about to comment about this
*Legendary my ass! They come outta the sky like candy from a piñata!*
The moment I saw one.
@@Gamebrojeremy1
Yeah, that's exactly how it feels.
And now the Galarian-Legendary Birds are just raising further questions?!
Not really. You can catch multiples in lets go. So its established those birds are just very rare. But pretty easy to imagine they could still evolve regional variants.
@@amp7980 Do you mean Pokemon Go or Let's Go because I thought you could only catch one in let's go.
@@darknessscythe1 In Lets Go, once you catch a legendary bird, it can then be a suuuuper rare spawn in the sky.
@@amp7980 huh, the more you know.
Weren’t the beasts roaming legendaries in the original games?
“Or... are there more than one of each?”
**Galarian Forms have entered the chat**
The kanto birds migrate to galar every certain amount of years like they do to kalos
I think galar must take place in the future and they moved there and adapted
Considering that regional variants exists because of REAL evolution then that must mean there are 1,000s of the birds or more over 100s of Generations
@@terraSpark902 Hm yes MandJTV.
@@julianapadilla3523 what?
Pokédex says that Latios and Latias fly in flocks. Pretty sure a flock needs more than 2.
Edit: hehe get fricked loser latest episode of the anime has 2 celebi's and they're differently coloured so they aren't the same one
Yup
Could be meaning that it flies in a flock with other Pokemon
@Team Stellar Plus Tobias had a Latios the trainer that fought & beat Ash in the sinnoh league.
To be honest, Pokedex isn't the most reliable source of information in Pokemon. It is even theorized that the player is who writes the information in the games; although Pokedex information ocould also be true...
@ The theory is debunked in literally every core game, by the professor telling you that the information is automatically filled in when you catch a Pokémon.
I really like the idea of "every time an Arceus lays an egg a new universe is created". It explains the multiverse's existence beyond the normal rational.
Also, as if we mortal humans would have any actual idea... The "egg" Arceus emerged from could be metaphorical.
Although those same mortal humans can catch it in a pokeball sooooooooo yeahh.
Someone’s seen kurzgesagt’s video on the egg theory
Its possible that the ""egg"" might be the true arceus. In the movie we see arceus dimension and it strangely as the shape of an egg. If an ancient civilization was to see the ""egg"" birth arceus it could seem to them that arceus hatched from said ""egg"".
@Pokémon & FF fan I remember that there was a dream world event in black and white
Nah, Arceus just makes multiple copies of Himself for every spawning alternate universe realities since the universe is diverging since in the beginning.
It’s been confirmed guys
Legendary Pokémon ARENT unique
There are now Regional forms for legendaries
And the new legendary Kubfoo used to have multiple of his species
Maybe long ago in the Pokémon universe legendaries were common and weren’t considered legendary but over time most of them died out and only the strongest of their species lived so that’s why they are so powerful and rare
I think let’s go counts because you can in theory have infinite legendary birds. After you catch them in their shrines you can find them in the air
some are unique, like the tao trio, the creation trio and others
@@jvc776 tao trío unique so are
Legendary beast
Ho-oh
Regis and regigigas
Rayquaza
Groudon
Kyogre
Mewtwo
Creation trío
Forces of nature trío
Xerniuse?
Yveltal?
100% zygarde?
Necrozma
Eternatus
And the sword and shield dogs
Also the lake trío
I think all of these guys are the ones where there is only 1 of each
Oh and hoopa IS also ubique
Not sure about celestia tho or whatever its name was
THEORY: There are multiple of each legendary, but there are the original's and the copies, the HG and SS Arceus isn't the OG the OG Arceus is like, mega strong, all the copies are weaker, the legendary birds on the island in the anime are the OGs and keep the universe from falling apart. The OG Palkia and Dialga keep the very fabric of reality in order, the copies can simply bend it. Arceus could have created copies of itself to keep people from seeking it out and fooling them, or it just wanted kids idk. This could also explain why a ten year old can capture THE DIETY OF TIME. The explanation is that they don't. This also explains the Galarian legendary birds trio, they're copies of the OGs that just grew up somewhere else lol.
plot hole has formed in this thought. i don't think pokemon has kept this lore bit of the legendary birds because the games never bring up this lore bit about the legendary birds. any more and what makes this worse. it could of been just taking liberties and making headcanon when there isn't. which is why i don't take game mechanics, or what the anime or movies say.
Well, the thing about the Galarian birds is that in their Pokédex entries, it is stated that these Pokémon only got their names because they very closely resemble the Kantonian legendaries. This means that they aren’t regional variants, but entirely separate Pokémon altogether.
@@jupitariandisaster4023 i was talking all the crap about the legendary birds keeping the universe from falling apart. it just sounds like a mcguffin bit just for ash to have a reason to save them.
Ive thought of that too, but I dont think its really the case
Im pretty late but i remember in a pokemon movie hoopa summoned legendaries from the past, so maybe the multipe legendaries has to do with the same legendaries from different times that has been transferred to one time
The pokedex literally says that a new entei is born when one roars.
I don't remember this, but I do remember one saying that a volcano erupts when one roars.
@@superphatcakes And one entei is born when a volcano erupts. So it comes full circle.
Saxor KH I always questioned that. You’d think the world would be overrun with Entei by now.
@@Gloomdrake Well, legendary pokédex entries tend to be "legend says that...", so they could be completely wrong.
@@saxor96 also: the pokeemon world would be a lot weirder if every pokemon entry was canon to the story.
I like to think that Arceus creates duplicates of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon once the originals are killed or captured. That way the duties of the absent Pokémon can still be fulfilled.
But what happens if you catch Arceus?
I think certain ones are unique, but most are merely extremely rare. The legendary birds in the movie(and that specific lugia) may indeed be special individuals within their species. Almost like champions that herald a great responsibility(protecting the orbs/ keeping the peace). They are intelligent enough to pass this responsibility down the generations, I think
@@arceusflute369 A book they released with the second movie actually said something like that, namely that the bird trio were larger and more powerful than other members of their respective species.
@@Ryodraco That makes so much more sense. It's more interesting that way, because now we can speculate as to why they're special(if it's inherent, or whether the power comes with recieving such responsibilities)
Eh good theory and the replies help it so yeah seems legit
I just say: Hoopa's Rings and Ultra wormholes.
You are welcome.
They hid it the hole time
@@volcanhacks Wow
I know this was *three years ago*, but it is HEAVILY implied that Koraidon and Miraidon have THOUSANDS of others inside of the "time machine". Let alone the fact that you can get two of your version's legendary (two Koraidon or two Miraidon in Scarlet and Violet respectively).
thats just a time paradox. legendaries are unique
@@enragedkimchis koraidon and miraidon are literally the past and future versions of cyclizar
What you're implying is that they were once a legendary, and then no longer a legendary, and then a legendary again
@@averonisgaming9023 no, thats not what i said, i didnt say mototokage , ciclar japanese, is a legendary. even miraidon and koraidon are future past versions of mototokage, but there was several experiments and tries of miraidon and koraiden, thats why are 2 copies in the game. despite i think this should be named 'artificial legendaries' and can exist copies of them. but normal legendaries like ho oh lugia rayquaza graudon kyrogue dialgia palkia etc etc are unique, just only one. even mewtwo is artificial legendary and was made just one time, unique.
@@enragedkimchis Then just call it Cyclizar. Odd "I know that thing's Japanese name flex" right there.
Also I don't think you got the point. What AveronisGaming was trying to say is that for Cyclizar to be the descendant of Koraidon (or the ancestor of Miraidon) - which are both Legendaries, by the way - there must have been, and must "be", multiple naturally occuring copies of Koraidon and Miraidon, which means that there can be more than one copy of a Legendary, for some of them at least.
@@Raisera there can be copies of miraidon koraidon because they are experiments related to the time machine. yes. in fact there is an extra miraidon koraidon in the same game. but in general legendaries are to be unique.
"The legendary beasts can be found roaming Johto, they can be found roaming Kanto"
JOHTO IS RIGHT THERE! LITERALLY RIGHT NEXT TO KANTO!
Yeah. For real. And they literally roam, known for roaming, is it really that unusual to find them in other places? Lol
@@reagenlionel No, I was meaning that he forgot where Johto was and that their legendary beasts could easily find themselves there.
@@maximaldinotrap I know exactly what you mean. I was saying in addition to that.
The Legendary beasts roam in Kanto in FR/LG.
@@wikiuser92 I don't see how you are trying to disprove my point of the legendary beasts being able to literally be in both Johto and Kanto at the same time depending on where they are at at the time.
Did you forget that Johto is literally connected to Kanto?
His articuno is wild. He didnt catch it, the articuno just fights for him cuz they r friends
Exactly.
But it came out of a pokeball
@@vanguardbreaker8826 Ummm... NO IT DIDN'T. Where did you even get that idea from? When did you even last see that episode?
@@wikiuser92 i think they just forgot to distinct between video game and anime
@@penguindragon0155 Agreed
Also when you think of it, Mewtwo having ability to mega evolve, not to mention TWO mega evolutions, completely shatters the artificial Pokémon story, unless...... The mega mewtwo X and Y mega stones are artificially created mega stones
They probably are
Diancie also has a Mega Stone, but what Diancie is is a specially evolved Carbink. Meaning the Carbink killed by the Ultimate Weapon could also have been forced into that mutation during their death, or the weapon itself mutated the Mega Stone to become one for Diancie. So Team Rocket can definitely create a Mega Stone on their own using Mew's DNA.
It seems like all mega stones are probably the same mineral having been exposed to the energy of different pokemon.
Have we ever considered the idea that being able to find legendries in games other than their home game would be a game mechanics over lore type scenario?
You shouldn't. Why? The Johto remakes, Heartgold and Soulsilver prove very well that GameFreak is aware that placing Ho-Oh and Lugia in the Hoenn region broke their previously established lore in Johto. Not to mention its appearance in Colosseum. And instead of ignoring it, they changed the towers to reflect it. The Tin Tower no longer exists, it is only the Burned Tower with no significance. Thus losing the connection to Lugia. The Brass Tower is now the Bell Tower where Ho-Oh is summoned rather than where it lives. So clearly GameFreak accepted the Tower Duo as no longer unique.
And they kind of just ignored the Legendary Beasts lore entirely alongside that. Ho-Oh was hinted towards appearing in Colosseum because of the Legendary Beasts being Shadow Pokémon. Who also appear in Kanto ahead in time of when they are originally statues waiting in the basement to be awakened. Not to mention their appearances on Battle Frontier teams.
I would say so too, especially considering most of the time it’s endgame interactions
Have we ever considered it’s more fun to theorize?
Wait, so in addition to immortality, Ash has the ability to travel through dimensions?????
What's next, he'll start winning some Pokemon Leag......Oh no...
he did
Only because they allowed him to keep going after Rowlet fell asleep midbattle, despite being disqualified for that very thing back in like, Johto or something
@@metalapplesus you mean like back in Kanto with his Charizard?
@@metalapplesus In Kanto Charizard was awake, but refused to battle, then went to sleep. Rowlet's sleep was a result of battle effort, and it awakened before the official end of the battle.
@@metalapplesus
The Alola League was not like Kanto, Johto or any of the other regions so that rule doesn't apply to the Alola league
Sirfetch'd is the most legendary pokemon of them all
i hate the eyes on sirfetched
Sirfetch'd for the win but I want to know what will be exclusive to shield
Nice reference
what a BEAUTIFUL mon that is.....DAMMIT why is it only in Sword *sobs*. Guess I'm gonna drop 100 bucks in Nov lol
@@thetorterramaster9154 same
I’d say that the Original Story is probably referencing “world egg” myths. An egg from literally nothing that contains the entirety of creation is not uncommon.
I think the arceus being unique thing is cannon now due to the fact in legends arceus, arceus itself states that the arceus you receive is a "peice" of itself and not itself entirely, so all other arceus could also be peices as well
Oh we have a whole rp server where we had to grapple with this
Kanto Birds - Not unique, just rare
Mewtwo - Very rare, at most two exist, and only if you assume the Kalos one was the result of trying to recreate the experiment
Mew - Not unique
Johto Beasts - Not unique, they reproduced (in FRLG, you can catch one... While the ones in Johto wouldn't awaken for another few years)
Lugia - Not unique, but likely only one has end of the world abilities
Ho-oh - Unique - Nothing hints to there being more than one Ho-oh even in anime canon
Celebi - Unique but has temporal clones
Regi - Not unique, some were locked away while others used as keys
Lati - Even the dex says they live in herds
Weather Trio - Likely unique, uncertain (And no, the shiny Ray doesn't count as evidence, Hoopa can rip open portals to other realities from what I can gather)
Jirachi - Not unique but stupid rare
Deoxys - Not unique - It's a mutated virus, that has to have happened a few times
Lake Trio - Unique, they kinda govern very specific aspects of the soul
Creation Trio - Mostly unique except for the baby Arceus gifts
Gigas - Possibly one per continent
Heatran - Not unique
Phione - Not unique
Manaphy - Not unique, just needs to be laid in specific conditions
Darkrai and Cresselia - Not unique

Meloetta - Not unique
Genesect - Not unique
Kalos Trio - Unique
Hoopa - Unique
Magearna - Not unique ; Man made
Volcanion - Not unique

Necrozma - Unique - Seems to be a parasite of the Cosmog line
Ultra Beasts - Not unique
Marshadow - Not unique
Meltan - Not unique
Zeraora - Not unique
On one place you talk about the games then on an other place you talk about the anime.
You know both are from different continuity
Kanto Birds - Not unique, just rare (never been completely confirmed in neither the game or anime nothing concretely implies that each time they appear, they’re different ones)
Mewtwo - Very rare, at most two exist, and only if you assume the Kalos one was the result of trying to recreate the experiment (only in the anime)
Mew - Not unique (on the anime yes, but in the game not 100% confirmed yet)
Johto Beasts - Not unique, they reproduced (in FRLG, you can catch one... While the ones in Johto wouldn't awaken for another few years) (only in the anime. No they can’t reproduce. The one in johto were existing ever since the burning tower was burn down your logic is flawed here)
Lugia - Not unique, but likely only one has end of the world abilities (only in the anime)
Ho-oh - Unique - Nothing hints to there being more than one Ho-oh even in anime canon
Celebi - Unique but has temporal clones (nowhere it said that and not unique in the anime)
Regi - Not unique, some were locked away while others used as keys (unique in both game and anime)

Lmfao 😂😂😂😂
Lol
So shiny mewtwo
People say that when Arceus Dialga Palkia and Giritina appear it’s just them creating another form of themself to humor us
After the genesect movie, I’ve always assumed that multiple Mewtwos can be explained by scientists recreating the cloning experiment. Yes the team rocket scientists died and maybe their research along with it, but eventually someone will recreate the experiment. Like how multiple companies race to create cures and vaccines for the same disease.
This might seem like a simple question but first...we have to talk about parallel universes

The legendary Pokemon might not be "Unique" but "powerful" enough to be labelled as Legendary.
The shiny legendary beast were actually zolorark. Also Hoopa's rings are actually a multidimensional portal so the pokemon he pulled out of them could have been from anywhere
Actually, the Shiny Legendary Beasts still existed; they specifically went after Zoroark for impersonating them.
I always held the idea that with the Pokemon deities the ones that you catch aren't the actual deity they're just like their "Avatar" for interacting with the mortal world and their actual form is often the multi-dimensional cosmos that humans can't understand more like traditional deities
this is supported later in Legends Arceus, where you can catch an Arceus, and he says that he's giving a fragment of himself to you, meaning that, whenever you catch an Arceus in DPPt through hacks, in BDSP, or get one from an event, it's just a fragment of himself
What came first, The Arceus or The Egg
Arceus and Mew are both the same age. They take the point of Lord and Lady like in Wicca mythos
The egg. Eggs debuted in Johto, which was before when Arceus was designed
Okay, yes that was a doylist answer

Pokemon director's want to contact u?
More like Nintendo ninjas
Oml 😂
The articuno wasn't caught. It was friends with the brain and fought alongside him
I heard it came out of a pokeball tho
@@tiredtobias It didn't.
I always thought the Legendary Pokemon were just rare, and the ones in the respective games were the true lore-based legendary pokemon. Like how we have legends and stories about many of our own creatures here, but that doesn't mean that exact species is super rare. Rather, it is referring to one individual in that species.
I always separated Legendaries and Mythicals into Pokemon that are just very rare and powerful (e.g. Zapdos, Darkrai, etc) and those who are actually an integral part of the world and cosmology (E.g. Dialga, Groudon, etc). Interestingly, most mythicals are in the former category. There are a few that still cause me problems, however.
Is Lugia being 'Guardian of the Seas' an individual role or a title for the species?
Are the legendary dogs always the same ones Ho-Oh empowered in the fable, or did it perhaps create a number of the trios as its agents?
Is there a species of Celebi or just the same one using time travel shenanigans to show up in the same place as itself?
I once created a sephirotic tree of sorts and a creation timeline for the Pokemon universe, I was incredibly bored at the time.
Arceus exists.
Arceus creates Dialga, Palkia, Giratina.
They creates the world(s).
They create Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza to do the heavy lifting. (Maybe Regigigas, but I doubt it.)
Time for life! First, they create Xerneas and Yveltal to have some context, then Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf (and maybe Zekrom, Kyurem and Reshiram) so these new things can think.
They create the Mew species as test #1. It works, time for some more.
Oh no, all that free will they got might be a problem. Create Zygarde to stop them destroying the world and Ho-Oh to punish them for trying.
What's this, a world full of things with a need for lots of crazy fighting as a core part of their life cycle is a bit chaotic? Time to create some local law enforcement. Alola's guardians, Galar and Johto's dogs, the titans, Tornadus, Thunderus and Landorus, the Swords of Justice because apparently Unova is just that bad, maybe Lugia, Latias and Latios as species of wandering protectors, and Celebi doing the same thing temporally. Or maybe Celebi was Dialga trying to make a Mew of its own, and Hoopa was Palkia doing it too. Argument could then be made for Marshadow and Giratina...
All of the rest are either aliens, created by humans, or just very rare and powerful.
My headcanon is unassailable!
(As long as I close my ears).
@TheDaxAzira Especially with the Galarian birds now in the latter case, though perhaps that is coloured a bit by how much they disrespected Legendaries in that expansion :D
I agree, Necrozma, a manevolent, ruthless, other worldly black hole compared to a elemental bird
2:33 The 16th Movie Mewtwo IS a different from 1st film. As not only has a Mega Evolution, female voice, does not recognize Ash, but appears in Anime tie in Episode, (where Vergil is POV character), that this Mewtwo was created by Team Plasma scientists seeking to recreate Team Rockets plans for the original with their version.
Where it was abused til it forcedably escaped, but unlike the original male counterpart, does not grow a hatred for humans. Just rather mostly well guarded or overly protective of others in response.
I was always confused about that
Kinda like Detective Pikachu’s Mewtwo
@@transendentemcorp nah, it was stated in the movie that the Mewtwo in Detective Pikachu was transferred from a lab in the Kanto region or something along those lines.
There is def only one mewto
Não, já confirmaram oficialmente que é o mesmo Mewtwo. A questão da dublagem foi um problema de direitos autorais ou algo assim.
What about Keldeo? His entire race is dead, so he is unique lol
“I used to be a normal guy, but then the rest of my species was eliminated.”
He got Sasuke Uchiha'd.
There's also how in Alola you can get a Cosmoem and eventually evolve it into either Lunala or Solgalio. All in one game. Although the argument could be made that they're not really legendaries, just super powerful rarer pokemon that come from other worlds via Ultra Wormholes. But I still like to take it as evidence. XD
Coming from the future, giving my own thoughts on stuff
I think each legendary has a different state for uniqueness
Let's go in dex order, because fun
Legendary Birds: non-unique. These are basically just extremely powerful Fearows, so they're rarer
Galarian Forme: non-unique, but a different species to an extent. While they share ancestors with the Kantonian forms, they're a different pathway of life
Mewtwo: semi-unique. I think it's entirely possible for there to be multiple clones, possibly by different organisations, since
Mew: non-unique. They used to be abundant, being the mother of all non-legendary species, over time their numbers have dwindled due to evolution of the Darwin kind, but still some remain. Some float around Kanto, while others live on Faraway Islands
Legendary Beasts: semi-unique. I think each iteration of the trio comes from a different situation, and Ho-Oh's trio are just one example of a situation
Lugia and Ho-Oh: semi-unique. I think there's only a couple adults of the species at a time, but they have means of reproduction
Celebi: either unique or non-unique. There may only be one, flying through time constantly to keep up the balance, or they're a species in which only one is present at a time in an area, filling in the gaps left by others joining trainers
The Regi Golems: clumping all five here, non-unique. They're golems, they're "easily" created when needed.
The Latis: semi-unique, same reasoning as Lugia
The Weather Trio: unique. I do think there's more than one of each, but I think it's more just that there's a few, and they're always there. A few Rayquaza, always circling the atmosphere. A few Kyogre controlling the tides and the rain. A few Groudon keeping the mountains tall. That kinda vibe.
Jirachi: I'm just gonna say unique, I'm not really sure with this little one.
Deoxys: non-unique. I'll explain why when we get to Alola.
Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit: semi-unique. I think one will always exist, even if one is full on killed, but I don't think more than one will be in a region at any one time.
Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina: unique. I think that, outside of certain situations where one is specifically created for a purpose (Sinjoh event), there's just the one of each
Heatran: non-unique. Kinda like the birds back at the start, just feels like they exist
Regigigas: unsure. I feel like there'd be more than one, but I'm just not confident enough in that opinion.
Cresselia, Manaphy, Darkrai, and Shaymin: non-unique. I think they're just rare beings, not unique necessarily. Gen 5 tackles it well for two of them
Phione: 100% non-unique, I have like 180 myself over the time I've played
Arceus: simultaneously unique and non-unique. So there's two sides to this one. First, universe creation. We don't know what made Arceus, did anything really, but discounting things beyond the multiverse of the games (so Arceus's egg was the first thing, ever), it's unique in that regard. However, on the obtaining side, as seen in PLA, Arceus can grant a part of itself, a small fragment, to join the world. This is my current interpretation of the 1000 arms, it was 1000 instances of Arceus's body. The "true" Arceus just kinda hangs around outside reality, or wherever that station is, but yeah. Arceus is infinitely collectable
Victini: this is gonna be repeated a bunch from here on. Semi-unique, one always exists, if it dies a new one is created. Let's call this "spirit law" for easity, as it's gonna be for things which embody a spirit more than an element
Swords of Justice (4): non-unique. Just rare, they don't embody anything major, same concept as the birds of Kanto
Tornadus, Thunderus, Landorus, Enamorus: semi-unique under spirit law
Original Dragon trio: unique. There's a hard creation event for them. However, it is possible the black and white stones used in the games aren't the only black and white stones created from the event, just two known of, allowing for more.
Meloetta: semi-unique under spirits law, although I do see multiple existing being plausible
Genesect: non-unique, but unique. It entirely depends how many were made, same as Mewtwo to an extent.
Xerneas and Yveltal: unique. I do think that it's possible for there to be more than one, however I think one needs to disappear fully for another to be active.
Zygarde: semi-unique. It really depends how many cells and cores there truly are. Some could argue each core and cell are their own zygarde, so it's really non-unique
Hoopa: semi-unique, partially spirit law, partially I think more than one exists, but each aren't aware of others
Diancie: non-unique. I see them as somewhat a "queen bee" situation, where they'll just kinda happen instead of a carbink under the right conditions
Volcanion: no clue. I'll say unique just because I don't know what's better fitting
Type: NULL/Silvally: semi-unique, there's atleast 3, I could see more being made with care after though
The Tapus: semi-unique, spirit law
Magearna: unique, only one was made, although I imagine that replicas were designed after it was discovered
Marshadow: semi-unique under spirit law, I think
Zeraora: non-unique, it feels like a rare species more than anything else
Now for where things get controversial. Alien Species.
I didn't answer Deoxys earlier, that's now. Deoxys, all Ultra Beasts, Cosmog and evos, Necrozma, I think are non-unique. I think they require specific circumstances to exist, whether DNA evolving on a rock or just specific alternate realities or worlds, but regardless, these alien beings are plentiful, we just don't know where to look
Meltan: non-unique, like zygarde cells, they're uncountable
Melmetal: non-unique, but extremely rare due to requiring a lot of Meltans to form
Zacian and Zamazenta: semi-unique. I think they're likely similar to the beasts, in that they're not one of a kind, but have certain birth conditions. These ones are rare, requiring something creating a hero of them
Zarude: huh? I got no clue, this thing never made sense to me
Eternatus: semi-unique, same concept as UBs
Kubfu: non-unique, just a rare species
Urshifu: semi-unique, while Kubfu is rare already, without someone to guide the evolution, it's extremely hard to know what to do
Glastrier/Spectrier: non-unique, I think they're just kinda, made when needed
Calyrex: semi-unique, spirit law
That's all of them for now. Maybe someday, we'll know for certain. Until then
Legendary pomemon is just another called to endagered species
50 02 yea, I put this as a reply on another comment but here, “Maybe long ago in the Pokémon universe legendaries were common and weren’t considered legendary but over time most of them died out and only the strongest of their species lived so that’s why they are so powerful and rare”
I had been thinking of this for years, i thought i was the only one who thinks this.
Wow so the gods are endagered species after all
@@OfficialEntertainnmentHub Once again you can literally make one out of thin air the only one that makes sense to be unique is Arceus as the only one.
then again, lapras were labelled as endangered in the first games, but later got out of that
The FACT that Mewtwo in the 16th movie was NOT voiced by Dan Green made me SO upset for some reason lol. I guess I just see Mewtwo as this really regal pokemon thus should HAVE a regal voice. It's also why I don't really like Arceus in the anime either-the voice reminds me too much of Bill Cipher where it SHOULD sound powerful all knowing since you know it's GOD the pokemon.
But Bill Cipher is an inter dimensional being which could in one way be counted as a God

1:38 oh FRECK THE ICE CAPS ARE MELTING
The Mewtwo from the 1st movie and the one from the 16th movie are different, the 1st one was made by Team Rocket (I think) and the 2nd was made by Team Plasma. Also they're opposite genders. (As for the one in Origins, that's an entirely different universe)
As for the Zygarde cores and cells, they're all one pokemon just divided, the cells act as observers and the cores create Zygarde, then the cores fuse with each other into its different forms dependent on the level of danger
But Mewtwo is genderless
@@benji7449 not in the show the 2st mewtwo is male while the team plasma mewtwo is clearly female
@@benji7449 that’s the point it shows the legendary can have both male and female voices
Solgaleo and Lunala can give you a cosmog which can evolve into another Solgaleo or Lunala so there are definitely multiple of them all around the universe.
This video="legendaries can't travel,they have to stay in one place forever"
Well, the movies are non-canon, so I imagine most are one-of-a-kind.
The movies are canon to anime, but the anime itself is not canon to the games. The things that happen in the anime are from an alternate universe.
Some movies are canon to the anime. Some are not.

@@KRKAB Yes, indeed. But *_most_* movies are canon.
@@kingbowser4542 so uh, is no one gonna question whether Latias or the girl kissed ash?
I have a theory for multiple Mewtwos. The team that created it saved a copy of it's genetic blueprint which ended up on the black market.
Here's my take on all the legendaries, considering both Game lore and a bit of anime to complement. I'll separate the 2 if they conflict with each other, also I have to mention that moves seem to follow a different lore from the main anime (hell the anime seems to follow a different continuity, at least 3 different ones).
Legendary Birds: They aren't unique, confirmed by being in multiple appearances game wise and anime wise, some spin offs even have eggs. They seem to influence the weather to a little degree, but it seems that a specific Trio of them have a sginfinicant effect on Kanto.
Mewtwo: It seems that in anime and in games there are at most 2 of them. One was the Team Rocket one and the second it seems to have been an attempt to recreate the experiment of Mewtwo, which resulted once again wrong.
Mew: at one point there could have been multiple, now extremely rare.
Legendary beasts: Originally created my Ho-Oh, there use to be a single trio but nowadays either, they reproduced, or Ho-Oh was jealous of Lugia's birds so it made more of them.
Ho-oh and Lugia: In the games it seems that there are only 2 of them, thanks to the anime it seems they have the capacity of reproduction.
Celebi: Likely one of them but it's multiple appearances can be explained by just being the same from another point of time.
Regis: Made by Regigigas, it seems to have the capacity of making multiples.
Jirachi: Singular
Deoxys: Multiple, since it came from space there could be more.
Eon duo: In the games it seems to be optional to capture them so they being in multiple regions can be attributed just traveling to different regions. However since in the anime they've shown to be multiple sets of the couple is likely is the same for the games.
Weather Trio: Is likely they are 1 of each, the explanation on why they appear on 2 different regions can be attributed to the fact that capturing them in their games isn't mandatory so they just traveled to another region to rest. Raquaza being shiny and normal in the anime is explained by Hoopa's rings since they can travel through different dimensions.
Lake guardians: Is likely there could be more of them, but until proven otherwise there's only 1 of them.
Manaphy: it seems to be able to reproduce, to make more of them, but it usually makes Phiones, perhaps there can be only one at the time.
Shymin: Multiple
Creation Trio: Only one of them per universe, Arceus seems to be able to give birth to another one if it so desires, however this is likely done to prevent someone of capturing them and mess up the entire universe.
Cresselia, and Darkrai: Supported by anime and games to be multiple each since they are counterparts.
Heatran: Supported by anime and games to be multiple of them.
Reggigigas: Supported by anime and games to be multiple of. At most there are 2 of them but there could be one for each continental plate of the Pokemon world.
Arceus: One single entity across the multiverse, perhaps what we interact with is just an avatar.
The entire fifth generation of legendaries sans Genesect: One of each. Lore wise and gameplay-wise there has been only one of each showcased and are always treated as individuals. Only in the anime Reshiram and Zekrom seem to be conflicting, this can and should be counted as a case of anime timeline =/= movie timeline.
Genesect: Multiple but limited. Experiments of Team Plasma.
Aura trio(didn't knew this was their name): Only 1 of them, Zygard is special case, but is likely that he monitors the entire world with Kalos it's main area of operation, it's presence in Alola is likely due to its unusual amount of Ultra wormholes.
Diancie: Chosen among the Carbink.
Hoopa: Could be multiple across the dimsions, only one per world.
Volcanion: Little is know, could be more but until now is unique.
Magearna: Unique, perhaps more can be crafted.
Marshadow: Little is known it seems to there be only one.
Zeraroa: perhaps one per universe.
Meltan and Melmetal: Multiple
Type: Null: confirmed to be at least 3 of them
Sylvally: only 1, depends of player's action if there's more.
Island deities: Unique
Cosmog, Cosmoem, Lunala and Solgaleo: Multiple, they seem to guard the ultra space, likely one per universe but can reproduce to make more.
Necrozma: Multiple across the dimension, only one per world.
But the majority of them can be obtained in its shiny form in thei games, that kind of feels like a proof there's more than one..... if you happen to catch the shiny, and no other exists in the multiverse...... then this should be its ordinary form, rather than a shiny variant
Very good explanation. Finally someone with a brain!
Speaking of which, u mixed legendary n mythical poke..
Also, victiny, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza.. pretty sure multiple of them.
Also doubt zeraora only one
@@lanzsibelius video game
Edit: in reference to the shiny point
What proof is there that multiple Necrozma exist?
My idea of this reasoning is that *specific* legendaries that appear twice move there temporarily. I mean I'd feel that a legendary pokemon being in any region would be huge no matter what... But not a single person mentions Groudon being in Jhoto. So my theory is that they don't know they moved there, instead they travel, possibly underground or some other way. Also pretty sure that the shiny Rayquaza is an alternate universe rayquaza. Cause Hoppa is said to be able to open portals to other universes. But specific Pokemon like Entei, Groudon, etc. travel to different regions to either explore or because they are called like how the seafoam islands are said to move around. But that doesn't mean there aren't multiple legendaries anyways like how Arceus literally creates a new Palkia, Dialga, or Giratina for us.
Maybe everytime we see a legendary twice, it's different legendaries from different universes
Edit: except for the times we see them next to each other obviously
I like the theory of when an Arceus reproduces, it creates a new universe
My theory is Mew and Arceus are like Lord and Lady in Wicca mythos.
There are multiple of the same Pokémon
In Pokémon heroes latios dies
In the hoops film there’s another one
You also see more of them flying around during the credits of Pokemon Heroes. The emerald version pokedex entry also refers to how its female counterpart Latias forms small herds.
Sabrina also has a Mewtwo in the gen 5 games
I remember coming across a fanfic writer who put forth an interesting view on legendaries, specifically the 3 Kanto birds. Somewhere at sometime there was a prime Moltres/Articuno/Zapdos that was the very embodiment/concept of their element but they were too powerful, so Lugia/Ho-oh or some other greater legendary split off Aspects of these concepts to lessen their power so they didn't overwhelm nature itself
Funfact! In Pokemon GO you can have up to 2000 Mewtwos at the same time.
:v
:y
I think some are and others are not. However I could totally see legendary Pokémon roaming around the world considering how annoyingly fast they roam in the game
I wish the video went over the pokedex entries that implied or explicitly states that some of them were a species or an individual. Like how Terrakion, Virizion, Cobalion seem to be individual pokemon who became known as legendaries for their deeds and a new Entei is apparently born every time a volcano erupts. The original legendary beasts were created when Ho-oh revived pokemon that were presumably different prior to that point but likely reproduced afterwards, which is presumably something the musketeer legendaries can do too.
Arceus presumably had to make an entire universe to make a double of Dialga, Palkia or Giratina so I wouldn't really count that as them no longer being one of a kind as far as one per universe goes.
If a pikachu can defeat a zapdos that’s when I stop trusting it as a source
To be fair, at this point Ash's pikachu has to be approaching level 100 with how many times he has battled with it against powerful trainers. Legendary or not, it is hard for a pokemon that is naturally found around level 50 to defeat a pokemon that high level. Also, Ash's Pikachu is practically an anime protagonist by itself so it has that "I am more special and powerful than anyone of my species should be" aspect.
The only thing unique about Legendary Pokémon is their ability to be hilariously cheap in a VS Pokémon battle
Hey.......I recognize you.....grow a beard 😑
Just playing 😂

Legends Arceus having the Arceus you can have on your team described as just a part of Arceus is pretty cool when paired with this video’s idea about one Arceus ruling over the multiverse or an Arceus per Universe every time a new Arceus is born. It can mitosis itself apparently to go hangout with a 15 year old
I used to think Ditto was a legendary. And now I stick with that.
The idea that each new multiverse starts with an Arceus from an old one just becomes a question of:
"Who came first? Arceus or the Egg?"
There's a universe out there where I, despite your advice, stop using my noggin
There’s a universe where you do use it?
I remember seeing a theory that said that there is 2 mewtwos, each one has a very different voice (one is deep and manly and the other had a female voice) and I think it might be true, in my opinion there are both part of the mewtwo experiment
So what if Legendaries work kinda like Darkseid from DC, or Demon Lords from Digimon?
As in, there is ONE Core/Main/True version of every legendary that is directly related with whatever aspect they seemingly related to, while every other instance of that Legendary are just avatars/echoes of them that are less powerful and not as connected to the fundamentals of reality.
So going with that logic, the bird trio in the Movie would be the Main versions that are actually connected to nature, which is why capturing them leads to devastating results, while the birds caught by Frontier dude and the players in various games are just avatars.
In their universe, they are unique, but in the multivers, not so much ...
And Arceus made a duplicate legendary in the special event of HGSS. ... that's a thing ...
Nonoctoro I mean... A lot of legendaries probably aren't unique. Mew for sure isn't, to begin with. Regigigas is pretty much unmoving and yet it's been found on several different continents far apart. You think it can run that fast?
A few probably are unique, such as the lake trio, the tao trio, the creation trio, the others probably have something like "there are several Moltres, but THIS one is the Legendary Moltres", like one of them being more powerful than the rest.
''Are Legendary Pokemon Unique?'' It's too early for this shit...I mean Ima watch it still

It would be cool for you to revisit this, especially the Arceus part, after PLA
The legendary dogs are unique, at least from the examples given. It’s easy to believe that the dogs roam around both Kanto and Johto *due to how close they are.*
Also, them being found in ORAS is not a natural occurrence. They were brought through *portals opened by Hoopa*. Hoopa can open portals to anywhere on the planet, *including where the dogs were.*
So how do you explain the existence of their shiny forms as shown in the anime. My question sounded confrontational but I really didn't mean it to so I'm sorry. I'm just not good at wording anything
I never really liked the idea of mewtwo being unique i mean my man's is literally a clone, who's to say he didn't make more mewtwos
@Inconceivable Disputes They rather implied artificial mass production using the experiment data to do it again, not reproduction.
Because it is implied that the mewtwo that destroys the lab on Cinnabar island was the first and only one born. All references to a Mewtwo in the Pokémon mansion mention a single individual. With the lab destroyed and with the scientists presumably dead, who would or why would they try and make another mewtwo either on purpose or by accident? To do that, they’d either have to capture a Mew and go through the exact same procedure and make the same mistakes to make another mewtwo (since he’s an imperfect clone) or get genetic data from mewtwo itself.
@@dryboneskirby Team Plasma made the Mewtwo in that one movie
@@dryboneskirby or the'd just have to have their data backed up and some dna in a vial somewhere

Mewtwo isn't unique because he's a clone ..ever heard of Mew? there you go

According to my microwaved mashed potatoes, they’re just really rare
Lol
I Just asked this to myself whole scrolling through my youtube recommendations and your video showed up. Well.. thanks?
There is one, logical but pretty cop-out answer, it’s just dittos that saw the real legendary and refuse to change back XD They’re all ditto
Every single being in Pokémon is a ditto.
You are a ditto
in pokemon sun and moon, you can actually get two of the same legendary (solgaleo or lunala) as you are given a second cosmog in the endgame
Yeah, Solgaleo and Lunala can breed. They are the male and female representatives of their species, respectively. Their breeding ground is the Lake of Sunne or Munne in Alola, and they entrust the Guardian Deities of each parallel world to take care of their young. They appear to be native to Ultra Space but choose to breed outside of it because they want to protect their young from being devoured by Necrozma which preys on their species. I mean, look at what Necrozma did to Nebby, and at that point, it had grown up to be a full fledged, Solgaleo/Lunala.
But that Cosmog is from an alternate universe travelled to by a Ultra Wormhole so Cosmog is unique per universe
Even in the legends itself says that the old Solgaleo and old Lunala married then gave life to a new Cosmog. So like every century or half century there's a new Solgaleo or Lunala in Alola that governs then finds a mate in Lake of Sunne/Munne.
@@burdenwounds3627 then they die or something there has never been 2 at a time
My interpretation is that there are two forms of legendary pokemon. There are the god-like forms, and then the pokemon avatars of them. That's why the evil teams never try to capture the legendaries with a Pokeball. Only the avatars can be captured in pokeballs. They're very powerful, but they don't have reality-bending powers. They're boons to the players and a bit of the legendary wanting to have some fun. For example, in Diamond, Cyrus has to use the red diamonds to capture Palkia because Palkia only has the powers to create a new world, when they're not captured. As a gift for saving it, Palkia allows the player to capture it (after proving themselves in battle), while the true form goes off to do Palkia things. The battle frontier captains have done the same thing. Since at least the stories of the games don't happen at the same time, after the player captures their avatar, the true form travels to another region, looking for someone worthy. Arceus temporarily gives extra power to the avatar the GHSS trainer has on their team, and uses that to create a new avatar of whichever of the Sinhoh trio the player wants.
9:36 And Lockstin, that's just actual real-world theology stuff with a pokemon reskin.
This is the greatest theories about these kinds of things I've seen. These a totally make lots of sense good job guys
After seeing the Galarian forms of the Legendary Birds, I've been wondering about this too.
The frontier brain didn't catch Articuno. If I remember rightly, it just came to like him so it hung out there a lot.
It's STATE, by the simple fact of multiverse existing, in some multiverses there are MANY legendary of one species, while in other there are ONLY ONE of each legendary or even NONE of some species of legendary pokemon.
Interesting point. Of course that means there are some universes where the Legendary Pokemon are literally made of spaghetti, but that doesn't invalidate your point.
@@MysteryMachineXIf we get such an wide definition, the tricky thing is: how to determine it's still a pokemon world, when you say "0K here it's pokemon, but there it's not pokemon anymore. "
Hey, god is made of spaghetti 😏 (pastafarianism).
I feel like certain legendries are unique such as Arceus, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina (except for alternate dimensions) since they straight up created the universe while legendries incharge of elements, ideas, etc have multiples.
That Rayquaza plush is golden.
I mean the Sword and Shield are just the same Pokemon but with miniscule differences.
The Articuno in the battle frontier was wild. It was just befriended my the frontier brain. And chose to battle at ashes request
Legends Arceus, all but confirming the Arceus we get is indeed a manifestation of a larger deity and not unique: *BUENOS DIAS*
the pokedex entry in diamond talks about arceus shaping the universe with its thousand arms. i have to assume that the arceus we catch is just one of the thousand arms of a greater being and it shapes the multiverse, where each universe gets an arceus when it's created.
Well, mewtwo is created in a lab, so technically is almost one of kind until it meets another mewtwo created in a lab by another organization that considered going after the other mewtwos too time consuming and expensive than just creating a new mewtwo from scratch.
